Hold UNRWA Accountable for its Racist Teachers

The Issue

A new 2017 UN Watch report exposes the UNRWA school system as a hotbed of extremism.

Dozens of school teachers at UNRWA schools in Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, and Gaza have made public Facebook posts praising Nazism and supporting terrorist attacks against civilians. This has created a toxic environment for Palestinian children, violating their right to a normal education.

Demand your government's funding for these schools be frozen until:

1. UNRWA fires its anti-Semitic teachers.

2. The U.N. conducts a full, independent commission of inquiry into the systemic extremism that plagues UNRWA schools.

In 2016, the U.S. State Department gave UNRWA $380 million, the European Union gave $136 million, and the United Kingdom gave $100 million. Why are they silent as UNRWA officials incite anti-Semitism and terrorism?
